IT is definitely feeling wintry all of a sudden, and this oil painting from The Box's permanent art collections captures the feel of winter perfectly.

The city acquired it in 1905. It is called 'Winter - Roseworthy Valley, Camborne, and it was painted by Samuel John 'Lamorna' Birch RA (1869-1955).
